*does some math* 104F or more? Does "hot" mean "People getting heatstroke" at minimum?

Common enough in some places.  It's usually children or seniors who are most likely to have physical problems, as long as they properly hydrate and stay out of direct sun (which means that farm workers are screwed during the summer harvest).  The worst 25 minutes of my life was back in high school, when I was driving home when it was 45° out in California, and the car started overheating, so I had to kill the AC and turn the heat on. 

cesium133:
I've driven across the southern U.S. in 100+ F (38 C) weather in a car with no air conditioning. It wasn't pleasant...

explicit:
I never use my ac in the summer unless it's raining or am in bumper to bumper traffic.

"Windows down, music up..."

Meh, I prefer the cold.  I can always throw another layer on, and my over-clocked desktop, despite liquid cooling makes a convenient space heater.  The only times I even close my windows are either when it's raining, or I know that there will be loud noises the next morning if I decide to sleep in.

Metope:
Being from Norway, I meant celsius and 30 is definitely hot for me. The good kind of hot though, not to keen when it gets over 45 (never gets over 33 in Norway, but I've traveled to a few actually hot countries and my "okay that's way too hot" cutoff seems to be about 45C).
